I stamped and heat embossed the Three Rose Garland stamp also with Medieval Metals embossing powder and then watercolored them as well. The sentiment is from the Framed Handwritten Words stamp set and is stamped with Ranger Archival Ink.

I added a fun piece of pink ribbon, and my card is complete :)

You can find all the linked products in the Sweet Stamps shop, along with tons of other fun stuff to play with.

I love how this card turned out, and it's much nicer even in person. This stamp is one of my favorites of the Miss Anya sets, and unfortunately it's no longer available. I have linked instead to the other Miss Anya sets that Noelle has in her shop at Quick Creations.

I created these bookmarks for my inspiration for Sweet Stamps, but really, I wanted to celebrate mine and my daughter's love of reading. Often we read each others books and share collections lol. I love that she loves to read. So I created these bookmarks, one for each of us!

I created this project using Daffodil Ellie, and paper from the Authentique "Renew" collection, as well as some ribbon and embellishments from my stash. The sentiment is from the Stamp of Approval "Beautiful World" collection.

I colored using my Copics and Prismacolor Premiere pencils in the following colors:

Before I get into my inspiration for this week, I want to give a shout-out to not only all the people evacuated from their homes in Fort McMurray this week (you are all in our thoughts), but also to the first responders who have been going non-stop since the start of the devastation. These men and women have been working endless hours to save lives and property, and every single one of them deserves our admiration and respect. They definitely have mine.

I also masked off the main flower after it was painted and gave it a shadow with Stormy Sky Distress Ink. I've always wanted to try a spotlight technique, and I think it turned out great :) I cut the oval out and popped it up on dimensional adhesives.

The linked products can be found in the Sweet Stamps online store, along with many other wonderful stamps and crafty things to 'play' with. And don't forget to play along with our two monthly challenges. This one starting today is anything goes, and in two weeks our Anything but a Card challenge starts.
